| Abstract |
Economic growth has been strongly associated with urbanization, overwhelming cities with vehicles. This renders mobility inside cities problematic, since it is often associated with large waste of time in traffic congestions, environmental pollution and accidents. Cities struggle to invent and deploy continuously evolving, "smart" solutions in the domain of urban mobility, so as to improve the overall quality of life therein. In this context, the paper discusses on the fundamental challenges that cities face when trying to become smarter, focusing on the particular area of mobility-as-a-service. Moreover, the paper describes a specific framework that leverages on 5G mobile communication infrastructures, in order to increase the effectiveness of vehicular communications and the relevant mobility services and applications offered in urban environments. |
